Dr. Joe Abretski was studying kinesiology (the study of body movement) in college when he decided to break away from the pack and pursue chiropractic. Dr. Joe had had his first experience with a chiropractor when he was only 12 years old. As an active kid and wrestler, his mom took him to his first adjustment after complaining of back pain. Not only did it help in that isolated instance, but he started to regularly attend appointments as a preventative measure to injury. This is why his practice Omni Family Chiropractic is very family-focused. He and his wife, business partner and practice co-founder Dr. Maxine make it their mantra to not only heal pain from a reactive standpoint, but to enhance the life of their patients. Their work can be seen as another beneficial tool in one’s holistic health tool kit, promoting self-care and alignment mind, body, and spirit.
